01 Charging

First, your battery pack needs power, which you can get by either plugging into an outlet or an electric vehicle charging station.

02 Battery Pack

Your battery pack is actually a collection of hundreds (and often thousands) of smaller lithium ion cells.The battery pack produces direct current (DC) electricity.

03 Inverter

The inverter’s job is to convert the direct current electricity from the battery to an alternating current for the induction motor.

04 Electric Motor

The electric motor uses the alternating current to produce a rotating magnetic field.

05 Drivetrain

The drivetrain uses the power created by the rotating magnetic field to spin the wheels!

06 Regenerative Braking

And lastly, during regenerative braking, the motor can also turn the rotation back into AC current, which goes back to the inverter, which then charges the battery.
